Community Group

I absolutely loved the discussions within the group. It made class go by fast and it was very informative and interesting. I thought it was very interesting how they gave the class most of the floor for us to define community and what it means to be a community. I like how they made me think outside of my little world and into the bigger world, it was so exciting.

The game that we played was so interesting. To be able to play a character that I would never know what it feels like to be, felt great. This game not only showed how different communities fall into stereotypes and how different communities come to assumptions of others, but it brought out stereotypes that I thought to be true and even some of the bias that I have. To play as a rich white community made feel that I need to be pompous, rude and racist to others. Even thought this is how I believe this kind of communities to be I never took in the consideration, as one of my classmates mentioned, that even though they might be in gated communities, that these people in this community might not even been pompous, rude or racist. I never thought about it like that. It made me look at myself and check myself. Because even though I beleive I'm accepting to everyone, I really am not. I assume, I judge and I like that this group made me think about those things about myself.

Overall I truly enjoyed everything that this group brought to the table. I glad that I got to experience.
